Casino Fund Raising – There are many fund raising event ideas available these days to fundraising committees.The challenge is to make it fun and make money at the same time.
The advantages of having a casino fund raising event include:

• It’s a fun interactive party
• Casino Parties will attract many who would not normally attend the typical boring
• fundraiser
• Tickets are easy to sell, since most people like to gamble
• There are numerous profit centers
• The event usually only lasts three to five hours
• This type of fund raiser is ideally suited as an annul event, with different casino party themes each year.

How much can be raised?

The amount raised will vary, depending on the number of attendees, ticket prices, drink prices, and other related activities at the Casino Party.

I’ve seen groups raise over $30,000 in a three hour event, but it was an annual event that had a large crowd, with an established charity.

Last year, I had a veteran’s group raise $3200. the first year with about 100 attendees. This same group recently booked another Casino fund raiser, and increased the number of tables by 50%.

I counsel most groups that they will typically raise between $2000. and $4000. their first year, with a 20% increase every year after that, when it’s turned into an annual event.

Here’s how it works…

Typically, tickets are sold, and the guests are provided with food (usually a buffet style), beverages, entertainment, play money, raffle tickets, and the chance to win prizes.
The guests then eat, drink and play the casino tables for two to three hours, and turn their chips and unused play money into raffle tickets. A raffle is conducted at the end for prizes.
